As a new mom, I appreciate the little things a lot more. The pleasure of getting a manicure or going out to lunch, or even eating a hot meal for that matter, is a huge treat now. With that said, these “luxuries” are far and few between when you’re a new mom. Broadway Nails sent me these imPRESS nails, which are a great alternative to an at-home manicure. I admit, I am not good at painting my own nails. I am the total opposite of ambidextrous; my right hand usually looks like a 4 year old attempted to paint my nails.
I grew up in the 90s so I was a little weary of these when I saw them. I remember glue disasters and getting fingers stuck together with the old school press-on nails. I was imPRESSed to say the least at how easy and mess-free these nails were get on. No glue wars this time around. The colors are also fun & include accent nails for a fun design that you can switch out to make it look like a totally different manicure.
The best part of imPRESS is the ease and no-mess application. However, I do so much with my hands. I am constantly cleaning bottles and pump parts (the joys of breastfeeding!) and I noticed after one day, my ring finger “accent” nail popped off. I was able to get it back on by pressing firmly and it stayed on pretty good. In total, the manicure lasted about 3 days. If you are one of the lucky ones that does not do much with your hands, it will probably last a week. All in all, I would only use imPRESS for an evening out if I wanted a quick mani without having to go out and get my nails done. For a little over $5 and under 5 minutes, you have a whole set of nails. They were so easy to peel off as well and left no damage to my nails.
It looks so easy to apply! I like the glitter one, it looks pretty 🙂

Thanks for the wonderful review on these press on nails. I’m always looking for new and easy ways to get my nails done. I’m going to have to try these sometime.

These look like a really nice length. I recently tried some nails out but they were way too long so I don’t think they were particularly stable on my nails! Definitely going to check these out, although I’m not too keen on the bling, I’d definitely prefer a more subtle look.

It looks really good. I love the colours you’ve chosen, that nude looks so classy and beautiful. It’s a pity that it didn’t last as much on your nail, but it’s normal if you’re constantly using your hands.
Nice review! xx

I think, its very easy to fix to our nails. But by seeing your pictures, it was clearly identified that those nails are fake. Maybe you need to change the color of nails!
